Early on in the Spring burst of new clothing and bright, warm-weather ads, I fell in love with the Asilomar dress from Tory Burch's Spring/Summer 2017 collection. Beautiful and flowy silk georgette, in a light, graphic floral pattern, I jumped at the chance to try this beauty on when I ...
Baubles
At 8am, Monday through Friday each week on the Hallmark Channel, The Golden Girls plays four back to back episodes. Coincidentally, three or four days a week, I'm on a treadmill at my local Globogym for an hour or so at 8am, usually watching The Golden Girls. Almost every episode is ...
The Look for Less: Wild Thing
For months- MONTHS- I've drooled over the Aquazzura Wild Thing sandal. Worn by stylish girls like Solange Knowles and Jamie Chung, and featured on almost every style blog and high-end fashion retailer's Instagram pages, these fringed bad boys beckon ideas of sandy resorts where salty hair and ...

I love- love!- cooler weather, and it's throughout the colder months that I feel perfectly fine wearing heavier materials, slimmer ...
Chicago Wardrobe

We arrived Friday evening, after a week of temperatures in the low teens, to a ...
It’s Almost Derby!
My internal Kentucky Derby alarm clock has not be well tuned this year. I kept thinking I was going to miss my 100-day out post- so much so, that I actually dreamed of hats and shared room at the Galt House with mean girls who were abusive to my toppers Monday night. No joke! I woke up in a ...
The Bling Ring
If any of you had asked, up until a couple of years ago, what my most prized possession was or what item I couldn't live without, I would have responded my Grandmother's wedding rings. After she died, there wasn't a day that I didn't wear them. Then, in the summer of 2011, while at a conference in ...
